Court Adjourns Dokpesi’s N5bn Libel Suit Till June 18 via thisdaylive

FCT High Court, Apo, on Wednesday adjourned until June 18, a N5 billion defamation suit, filed by Chief Raymond Dokpesi, against the Minister of Information and Culture and Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice.

At the continuation of trial, Dokpesi while being led in evidence by his counsel, Nkem Okoro, tendered various newspaper publications to support his claim of the defamatory statement made by the minister in the press conference on March 30, 2018. Counsel to Lai Mohammed, Mr Terhember Akpe, objected that the content of CD was not known nor the maker.

Dokpesi also tendered a letter written to him by the American Embassy on March 16, revoking his visa as a result of the minister’s conference listing him among the looters of the national treasury. The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that Dokpesi had filed a suit on April 30, seeking N5 billion damages from Mohammed and Malami.
